More nonsense. Wasn't a shot at LST at all. Pretty sure Q, LST and I have laughingly thrown that around, specifically about Bjelica.
But you can judge my character. Kudos to you.
We've all seen your character. This just in....................it's not great.

...but therein lies the problem. The fact that someone picked GF over Wiggins shouldn't be taken as a personal affront or insult. The 12 folks that voted yes is not about Wiggins being a "huge disappointment", but about giving the edge to one guy with tantalizing potential over another.
It could also be about lunacy IMO.
Well, then I guess there are 12 lunatics on this board. If Wiggins truly turns into an efficient go-to scorer that does what he did tonight on a more regular basis, than I tip my cap to him. I'm glad we have him either way.
Let's be very clear here. I am NOT calling anyone a lunatic. Just the idea that Giannis is a better value than Andrew seems like lunacy to me. Hope I'm right in the long run.

I've lurked on this board for a long time, going back to the ESPN board days... there always has to be an antagonist. Would the board really be as entertaining if we all agreed with each other? I know I don't post as much as some but I think everyone here has a pretty rational grasp of the game and it's pretty petty at this point to be fighting over character of someone cause of their views on basketball. I know Cam has done his fair share of poking and prodding but can't you guys just smile and enjoy the win?! Can anyone say they saw us beating both Chicago AND Atlanta? Not picking at anyone in particular, I've seen everyone get in their scuffles more or less on here, just couldn't believe the amount of negativity in a lot of these post game posts after such a huge win...

The point is this board needs to cool it's fucking jets when it comes to being disappointed or worried about guys so quickly. 4 games is less than 5% of a season. Yet every year shit like this thread pop up after a small sample size and then the larger sample size comes in at the break and the end of the year and the guy is usually better and people are no longer worried in the blink of an eye like the patience of a fucking squirrel. If you want to criticize a bad game fine. Bringing up a who would you rather have because of four mediocre to bad games is different. Just take a breath and let em play. A 4 game slump is nothing in the grander scheme of a regular season. So stop worrying that quickly.

It seems to me that most of us here enjoyed the win and the performance of Wiggins.
Cam on the other hand feel the need to defend his ' concerns about wig's first 4 games'. He even had time to research numbers on Wiggins first 4 games and post them during the game to try to back up his case!

What's funny is that Cam didn't even start this thread AND he voted for Wiggins!
Lip started this thread and it was purely hypothetical. Everyone here answered it honestly and I have absolutely no problem with folks that took either position (I picked GF, but it was very close for me).
The problem is then after a game like tonight, someone takes the low road and bumps it as a way to throw it in the face of people that voted the opposite way he did. Fun times!

We bump it to show what he brings to the table closer to his peak than the valley everyone on here was worried about in the first 4 games. We bump it to show people how foolish it is to worry about someone after 4 games. If you want Giannis that's fine, but it's ridiculous to say you want Giannis because his first four games this year proved he was a better player than Wiggins. The jury is way out on that debate and I at least felt people were making that call based off of four games this year.
